The zodiac sign of LIBRA is associated with the month of September and in the medieval iconographic compositions it is often represented by the figure of a woman with scales. The figure of a woman is usually shown full-length, either frontally or in profile. She is often portrayed holding the scales in balance. Sometimes the woman is missing and simply only the scales are shown. In the modern horoscope the zodiac sign of LIBRA covers the period from about 23 September until 23 October.
